Sega has announced that they’ll bring Yakuza Kiwami, the enhanced and updated remake of the first game in the long-running series, to the PC on February 19:
Yakuza Kiwami, the franchise’s very first original title, tells the tale of Kazuma Kiryu, an up-and-coming yakuza who takes the fall for the murder of a crime boss, only to emerge from prison ten years later to a changed world. Take a trip through the twisted world of Japan’s criminal underground, where alliances will be tested, and blood will be shed. Players will encounter “extreme” battles, a wide range of minigames, refined side missions and lots of other fun distractions.
With enhanced gameplay, an expanded cinematic story, the return of thrilling battle styles and re-recorded audio by the series cast, Yakuza Kiwami is the ultimate version of the original vision of the series, now optimised for PC with 4K resolutions, uncapped framerates, and customisable controls.
Yakuza Kiwami will be available to download through Steam for $14.99. Fans who pre-order the game will receive a 10% discount and a Bonus Content Pack (a Digital Manga, Exclusive Wallpapers, and Avatars).
